Things you Geek About (interests, hobbies, fandoms):
General Interests: Art Deco, Art Nouveau, Arts & Crafts (the aesthetic movement), Mucha, Erte, Liberty of London, Egyptian Revival, Gothic Revival, Fairy Tales, Judaism, Celtic Music, Textiles.
Colors: Favorites are metallics, orange, blue, green, purple. In truth, I love all colors, but not all at once. Monocromatic schemes are pure love. I don't wear a lot of red, but if red is your favorite color to work in, that would e fine, too. I prefer jewel tones over pastels, matte metallics over shiny metals, vintage looks over modern.
Craftwise: I've been involved in jewelry crafts since my early teens, and now, primarily the beading arts.
Fandoms: I'm currently enjoying Kingsman (first movie, not second), White Collar (old fandom delight), The Flash (first and second season only). I have a fannish interest in Morse’verse - Inspector Morse, Lewis, and Endeavour. I am also falling into the Mandalorian fandom and by extension, Star Wars.
That being said, I don't have any particular interest in receiving a fannish gift, but if my recipient wants something fannish, I'll be happy to try and make it.
Any allergies/postal restrictions/simple DNWs: No food, please. No plastics, please. Nothing scented. No candles or anything to burn. What country do you live in? U.S. Are you willing to ship internationally? Yes, but I need to know that my recipient is not in the US before I start creating.
What kind of crafter are you?/What are you willing to gift? I currently do many different kinds of beadword – bead weaving, bead embroidery, pearl stringing and knotting, and kumihimo (with and without beads). My preferred materials are glass beads, natural stone, pearls of all shapes and sizes. I work in all colors except black, and generally take a very holistic approach to creation (which means I kind of suck at following patterns and prefer to invent my own designs once I learn a technique). I would be happy to gift a custom-made necklace and/or bracelet and/or earrings in a style my recipient would like. I tend to enjoy working on larger, showier pieces, but I can scale back if I have to.
Are you willing to pinch hit if necessary? Yes. What about if shipping is paid for? I'll ship in the US, priority mail, and will not require that it be paid for. If you participated in last round, who did you create for/who created for you?: 2020 I made for Ambyr, and I had two pinch hitters, YourLibrarian and another creator whose name I can’t recall.
